"Why don't you date Stephen? " my sister suggested out of the blue.
'Oh Shut Up', my brain responded.
.......
Seeing him in pictures was one thing. But seeing him here in front of me was totally IN A DIFFERENT PARALLEL UNIVERSE different.

Stephen: As I held her in my arms, I felt different. Normally I would get aroused by even a sight of Sandy. But now, the feeling was different, not completely, but yes there were things I couldn't express. .....
Sandy Bells:
"So you don't know how you guys ended up cuddling ", Bryce asked for umpteenth time, while chewing on the pancake I made him.
I turned around from the cabinet section of the kitchenette to find Bryce standing and looking down at his plate on the kitchen island.
" For the last time, he is still asleep so please be quiet, and yeah I don't remember, ok?" I turned around replying and started plating the final pancake .
"Sandy... Oh hey... Bryce?" I heard a raspy, gruff voice behind me and a sound of door being shut.
I turned.
And lo', I froze on my spot with the pan on my right hand and a spatula on my left, as I saw Stephen ,shirtless , standing at the door of the guest room and glaring at Bryce.
Wait!
He is focused on Bryce?
Ok, this is new.... I am jealous of my bisexual best friend. What? Why? But yeah he is glaring , ain't he?
"Umm... You gonna hurt your hand if you remain like that for so long", Stephen's rough morning voice broke my train of thoughts.
I looked up to find Stephen coming towards the kitchen island.
"Yeah, right...", I replied and turned around to plate the pancake.
I could hear blood rush to my cheeks, making me blush.
For the love of God, control yourself Sandy.
I inhaled.
" Care for some pancakes? ", I turned around with a wide smile pasted on my face.
Way too wide, hon.
" Yeah lemme just go fresh up a bit ...if you don't mind me using the washroom ", he said turning around.
"There are new brushes in the cabinet below the sink ... And you can grab something you like to wear", I called out after him as he reentered the guest room, pretty sure that the last part was nothing more than a mumble.
" Oh you would like to GRAB SOMETHING YOU LIKE", Bryce smirked once Stephen was out of the room.
"Oh shut up" _____________
BEFORE breakfast Rhea had left early with THE guy.
I was left to deal with Stephen and Bryce who were practically having a glare fight with each other.
Fuck me .
"Can I?" , I heard Stephen's voice suddenly. Almost gagging through my glass of coffee i looked up at him , sitting opposite me on the kitchen island,beside Bryce . Bryce was looking at me.
"Huh?" I asked. "I was just asking can I get some more coffee", Stephen replied.
"Oh sure", i replied.
____________ After a while Bryce had left(not before forcing me an Stephen sit beside each other) and i was alone with Stephen. We were sitting on the sofa waiting for someone to break the silence.
It's just infatuation, obviously hormones and stuff. Nothing more . RIGHT?
"So you are in college right?" He suddenly asked.
"Oh yes, final year",i replied, "One month left to graduate."
"That's great", he replied dryly.
I saw him hesitate a bit. Maybe trying to say something.
Does he want to leave. That will calm me down. But I don't want him to go. Do I or don't i?
"Umm", he hesitated.
"Yes?", i turned towards him . We were facing each other.
"I actually wanted to ask something", he turned his face forward, as if avoiding contact, "but maybe it's not tasteful for me to ask such a thing."
"Don't worry. Ask me", i smiled, "i can always not answer if I don't want to"
He finally turned to face me, so sudden that my breath hitched.
"Are you into it?" He asked with a low voice.
Huh?
"Into what?", I asked confused.
"Umm... Actually I have been meaning to ask since I saw those... Just curious... Am not a creep... And i won't judge if you say yes" he replied so as not to leave any doubts.
"Ask me", i said in a soft voice. I didn't notice that we were leaning in.
He turned his face forward. Hesitated. Looked towards me. Then he asked something that could easily give me arrhythmia.
Heyyyyyy... Am back! The OGs know what had happened, so I just wanna say I am taking a break. And if you don't know it's fine.... I can only hope you waited ... So Stephen is back and we would be moving story a bit faster...
